The first in a series of bi-annual surveys of architectural practice Building a New Millennium is an essential reference tool for anyone with a passion for up-to-the-minute buildings and design. The work of 57 architects is represented, with exhaustive photos, plans and commentary on 83 buildings.
The selection is truly international, right on the pulse of contemporary thinking, and constantly fascinating. There is diverse work from established names such as Sir Norman Foster with his Hong Kong Airport (completed last year), Renzo Piano, and Zaha Hadid, as well as unusual collaborations such as Brit-Art bad boy Damien Hirst's teaming up with Mike Rundell to design London's Pharmacy restaurant.
